Does Low birth weight exacerbate socioeconomic inequalities in child undernutrition in Sri Lanka
Missing marriage
Across Asia, men and women increasingly delay or abstain from marriage, a change often linked to improvements in female educational attainment and labour force participation. In Myanmar, less than 90 per cent of women aged 45–49 years during the 2014 census had ever married, compared to nearly all men of a similar age. This paper investigates the difference in marriage patterns between males and females in Myanmar. Using a Cox proportional hazard…
Violetta Hionidou, Abortion and Contraception in Modern Greece, 1830-1967
Studies of the historical fertility decline in nineteenth- and twentieth-century Europe have, in recent decades, moved away from the testing of mechanistic, social science-based theories involving changes in the demand for children, or the invocation of grand ideational transitions. These failed to produce satisfactory accounts of the reduction in family size observed across the continent. In their place have come context-specific accounts of the…

Household Living Arrangements and Old Age Pauperism in Late-Victorian England
The fortunes of older people in late nineteenth-century England varied considerably. At the two extremes were a comfortable retirement and complete reliance on the New Poor Law, but most older people got by on some combination of part-time work, familial support, and transfer payments from the New Poor Law. This paper considers the extent to which access to resources during working age affected the risk of becoming pauperised (that is, dependent …
Mortality decline by cause in urban and rural England and Wales, 1851–1910
This paper presents a new analysis of the contribution of particular causes of death to the decline of mortality in England and Wales between 1851 and 1910. We examine deaths in a set of 588 registration areas based on the registration districts but amalgamated where necessary so that the boundaries of the areas are consistent over time. The deaths are classified by cause, and the paper discusses changes in the classification of causes of death b…
Sanitary investment and the decline of urban mortality in England and Wales, 1817–1914
Previous authors have drawn attention to the role played by loan-financed public works in reducing mortality in England and Wales during the latter part of the nineteenth century. These arguments have often been based on an analysis of the loans sanctioned by the Government’s central health departments following the creation of the first General Board of Health in 1848, but little attempt has been made to disaggregate the loans either by function…
The geography of changing fertility in Myanmar
Between 1983 and 2014, the total fertility rate in Myanmar declined from 4.7 to 2.3 children per woman. Previous analyses of fertility decline in the country suggest that the decline varied regionally, but the geography of the decline has not been formally
Climate Effects and Stature since 1800
During the last 30 years, economic and social historians have collected and analyzed large amounts of anthropometric data to explore key aspects of the human past. Attention has also been devoted to the examination of factors that can exert an influence on stature. This article outlines the different ways in which climate might influence stature, either directly or indirectly. It then uses geographical information system software to explore the r…

Birth, Death and Religious Faith in an English Dissenting Community
The study of English historical demography between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries is based largely on data from Church of England parish registers. While historians using these registers acknowledge that there were often substantial groups who did not adhere to the established church, their demographic behavior has been only rarely studied. Thus the analysis of a nonconformist population living alongside an Anglican population is a very…
Jewish Mortality Reconsidered
It is known that mortality of Jews is different from the mortality of the populations that surround them. However, the existence of commonalities in mortality of different Jewish communities across the world has not received scholarly attention. This paper aims to identify common features of the evolution of Jewish mortality among Jews living in Israel and the Diaspora. In the paper the mortality of Jews in Israel is systematically compared with …
Childbearing and Economic Work

Sex differentials in phthisis mortality in England and Wales, 1861–1870
In the mid-nineteenth century phthisis, or pulmonary tuberculosis, was the single most important cause of death in England and Wales. It was widely distributed geographically though some areas were worse affected than others. This paper explores aspects of the geography of phthisis mortality in England in the second half of the nineteenth century, with particular attention to the sex differential in mortality from this cause. Phthisis is often th…
Long-term changes in sickness and health
This article presents new evidence on long-term trends in sickness rates in England and Wales using data from the Hampshire Friendly Society. In previous work, Edwards, Gorsky, Harris, and Hinde argued that this Society contained a uniquely detailed set of records for the study of individual sickness histories. However, their initial findings were based on the records of a relatively small number of men who joined the Society at different points …
Factors Associated With Contraceptive Approval Among Religious Leaders in Pakistan
Research is needed to understand the role of religion in family planning dynamics, particularly in societies where the views of religious leaders can be an important influence on the reproductive decisions of individuals. This paper attempts to describe the factors associated with approval of contraception among religious leaders in Pakistan. The data are taken from the 1999–2000 Survey of Perception of Religious Leaders about Population Welfare.…
Ageing, Sickness and Health in England and Wales during the Mortality Transition
During the second half of the nineteenth century, friendly-society actuaries became increasingly concerned about an apparent increase in recorded morbidity. They attributed this increase to changes in sickness behaviour and a decline in the societies' ability to police sickness claims. These arguments have been echoed by a number of historians but others have suggested that the increase represented a real change in sickness experience. This paper…

Identifying Individuals Engaging in Risky Sexual Behaviour for Chlamydia Infection in the Uk
Chlamydia trachomitis is the most common sexually transmitted infection in the UK and the number of cases diagnosed each year continues to rise. Although much is known about the risk factors for chlamydia from previous observational studies, less is known about how individuals put themselves at risk. Do they engage in just one risky type of behaviour or are certain individuals ‘risky’, engaging in multiple risky behaviours? This paper uses latent…

Unusually small sex differentials in mortality of Israeli Jews
Since the establishment of Israel sex differentials in life expectancy at birth exhibited by Israeli Jews have been very low in comparison to other developed countries as a result of relatively high male and relatively low female life expectancy. To ad
Fertility and union dissolution in Brazil
This study examines the union and conception histories of Brazilian women aged 15-49 using the 1996 Demographic and Health Surveyâ s calendar data. The aim of the paper is twofold: firstly to explore the use of union histories in the DHS calendar data
The proximate determinants of fertility and birth intervals in Egypt
In this paper we use calendar data from the 2000 Egyptian Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) to assess the determinants of birth interval length among women who are in union. We make use of the well-known model of the proximate determinants of fertil

Employment after Childbearing in Post-War Britain
In post-war Britain, mothers have been returning to the labour-market after diminishing breaks around childbearing. Longitudinal data, mainly from two generations in the National Survey of the 1946 cohort, are used to describe and help explain the trend. Class and regional differences diminish over time, both in simple two-way analyses and in multiple (hazard) regression. Women's education and occupational attainments retain a positive effect on …

Mortality in Victorian England
The authors critically examine the analysis of mortality in Victorian England developed by Thomas McKeown and others. This perspective involves focusing in detail on the pattern and structure of mortality with particular reference to variations in age-specific mortality and to regional and local differences. The authors focus on two sets of problems: first the estimation of model life tables which will assist the study of changes in the age-speci…
Diversity in fertility patterns in Guatemala
This study investigates urban and rural fertility trends in Guatemala up to 2002. It also aims to establish, using the theory of diffusion as its theoretical framework, the extent to which ethnicity and ethnic diversity are associated with geographical patterns in local‐level fertility after controlling for socio‐economic indicators. Data from the Demographic and Health Surveys of 1987, 1995–96 and 1998–99, the National Maternal and Child Health …

Recent trends in Tanzanian fertility
This paper provides an assessment of the nature and magnitude of Tanzania's recent fertility decline, using robust methods for the identification of fertility trends. A decline in Tanzanian fertility began some time in the late 1970s or early 1980s. The pattern of decline exhibits similarities to patterns identified some years ago in Zimbabwe and Kenya. The decline has been especially marked in urban areas. It has been accompanied by a rapid rise…
Nuptiality and Age At Marriage in Nineteenth-Century England
This paper presents a reworking and extension of Anderson's (1976) analysis of Victorian marriage patterns. It utilises registration district data for England and Wales in 1861 and 1891 together with information on individuals drawn from the census enumerators' books for six case study districts, 1851-1881. The main focus of the analysis is on the role of occupational charac teristics, especially those of women, and the ways such characteristics …

Age, Sickness, and Longevity in the Late Nineteenth and the Early Twentieth Centuries
We examine the relationship between age, sickness and longevity among men who were members of the Hampshire Friendly Society (HFS) in southern England during the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. The HFS insured its members against sickness, death and old age, keeping detailed records of the claims for sick pay submitted by its members from 1868 onwards. From 1892 onwards, these records included information about the cause of the sic…

Variations in historical natural fertility patterns and the measurement of fertility control
This paper considers two main issues: the definition of Henry's concept of natural fertility, and the use of standard age-specific marital fertility schedules to measure the extent of fertility control. It suggests that regional as well as temporal variations are to be expected in the pattern of marital fertility and in consequence argues the need for a variety of standard marital fertility schedules specific to the underlying fertility condition…

The population of a Wiltshire village in the nineteenth century
This paper reports an exploratory reconstruction of the village of Berwick St James in Wiltshire using nominative information from nineteenth-century English censuses and ecclesiastical registers of baptisms, marriages and burials between 1841 and 1871. The data are first described, and a procedure for sorting and linking records from different censuses, and for linking census records to registration records, is outlined. A detailed analysis of p…

The third birth in Great Britain
The relationship between female labour force participation, and other socioeconomic factors, and the probability of having a third birth is examined, using British data collected in the 1980 Women and Employment Survey, by hazard regression modelling with time-varying covariates. The results demonstrate the strong association between demographic factors, e.g. age at first birth and birth interval and subsequent fertility behaviour. Education appe…

Fertility decline in Tanzania
According to the 1991/92 Tanzania Demographic and Health Survey, a Tanzanian woman has, on average, 6·1 births before she reaches age 50, a decline of about one birth per woman since the early 1980s. The major proximate determinant of fertility is universal and prolonged breastfeeding. An analysis of the social and demographic correlates of fertility shows that infant and child mortality, level of education and age at first marriage are among the…

Social and economic factors related to breast-feeding durations in Tanzania
Some social and economic factors related to breast-feeding durations in Tanzania are analysed using current status data taken from the 1991–92 Tanzanian Demographic and Health Survey. Proportional hazards and proportional odds models are estimated. The results show that breast-feeding durations vary according to the region of residence of the mother and child (and whether they are living in a rural or an urban area), the age of the mother at the …
An Introduction to Population
The Stone Workers of Purbeck
In his book Green and Pleasant Land , Howard Newby used the term ‘occupational communities’ to describe the villages of rural England in the nineteenth century. By using this term he intended to convey simultaneously the notions that the populations of these villages were dependent upon a single economic activity, agriculture; that social and economic life within them therefore revolved around the agricultural cycle; and that social relations in …
Understanding the sex ratio in India
The highly masculine sex ratio in India has increased substantially in the twentieth century, in contrast to most other countries in the world. Competing arguments alternatively posit underenumeration, highly masculine sex ratios at birth, or excess female mortality throughout the life course as the factors underlying the level of the overall sex ratio; these arguments have not been resolved. Based on population projections that simulate populati…

Infant and Child Mortality in Three Culturally Contrasting States of India
Using cross-sectional, individual-level survey data from Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Uttar Pradesh collected under the Indian National Family Health Survey programme of 1992–93, statistical modelling was used to analyse the impact of a range of variables on the survival status of children during their first 2 years of life. Attention was focused on the potential impact of the mother’s autonomy. The strongest predictors of mortality were demograph…
The relationship between attitudes, demographic factors and perceived consumption of meats and other proteins in relation to the BSE crisis
This study investigates changes in perceived consumption, beliefs and attitudes about beef and other proteins over three time periods that included much major media coverage of BSE-related issues. Demographic, consumption frequency of meat and other proteins and attitude scales relating to beef and BSE were administered to a sample of 1065 shoppers as they left a supermarket. Significant changes in most of the consumption measures were found over…

Perception of Risk of Hiv/Aids and Sexual Behaviour in Kenya
The association between perception of risk of HIV infection and sexual behaviour remains poorly understood, although perception of risk is considered to be the first stage towards behavioural change from risk-taking to safer behaviour. Using data from the 1998 Kenya Demographic and Health Survey, logistic regression models were fitted to examine the direction and the strength of the association between perceived risk of HIV/AIDS and risky sexual …
Sickness, insurance and health
During the last twenty years, social and demographic historians have used a variety of approaches to investigate the health of past generations. Whilst a great deal of effort has been devoted to the analysis of anthropometric indicators, a smaller number of historians have used friendly society records to investigate aspects of sickness and morbidity. This paper reports our own efforts to investigate the health experience of members of the Hampsh…
